What has Jiang Chen been doing these days?

In a nutshell, it's a waste of money.

And it's still in billions.

The military barracks on Crescent Island, the 2,300-meter-long dual-runway airport, the simple radar base station, and two football-field-sized offshore platforms connected by dams were completed successively. After delivering the project funds to the "Mammoth" company, Jiang Chen account In an instant, another 1.4 billion in cash went away. Counting the 4 billion US dollars spent in the past few days, he spent 5.4 billion in just three days.

However, this is not the end.

To prepare for the mining of molybdenum mines, Jiang Chen injected 1 billion US dollars into Future Mining, and planned to build two semi-submersible offshore platforms in the southern waters of Anga Island through bidding.

This kind of semi-submersible platform is often used in deep sea areas, and its main application field is to exploit oil gas. Its principle is similar to that of a submarine. The platform is built on large buoys, which are embedded below the water surface and fixed to the seabed by anchor chains. The bottom of the legs below the buoy is designed with a balancer similar to a fishing lead sinker, which falls into the seawater under the platform to prevent the platform from losing balance due to seawater surges or wind.

The advantage of this kind of offshore platform is that it is movable, and the bottom minerals can be towed away by boat after the mining is finished. Jiang Chen's plan is to station 2 soldiers and 3 staff on the offshore platform, and use electronic equipment to control the mining machines on the seabed. A ship comes every week to replenish the offshore platform with living supplies and at the same time pull away the mined manganese nodules rich in molybdenum ore.

Although the technology of the mining robot is still under development, Jiang Chen believes that it won't be long before the No. 27 shelter will have a result. Before that, it is a good choice to build the offshore platform first.

These mined manganese nodules will be pulled to Anga Island, because in addition to molybdenum-rich oxides, more than 50% of the structure is composed of iron oxide and manganese oxide. In order to deal with these manganese nodules, Jiang Chen once again injected 200 million US dollars into Future Mining. A manganese nodule processing plant, a molybdenum ore refinery, and a steel and aluminum plant were built on Anga Island.

The manganese nodule treatment plant crushes ore and does preliminary sorting to produce manganese metal and molybdenum-rich slag. The slag will be sent to the molybdenum refinery for secondary processing. Produces the molybdenum ore needed to make VR headsets.

The iron and aluminum plants are mainly used to process the iron and aluminum ores purchased from the bhp mining group, and at the same time process the slag remaining from the refining of manganese nodules.

The entire line is expected to be completed after March. At that time, Anga Island will take the first step of industrial transformation. The abundant minerals can not only meet the needs of the island, but can even be exported for profit!

After dealing with the future mining business, Jiang Chen started to work on the future technology headquarters.

The location of the headquarters is located on Koro Island. In order to ensure the safety of the quantum computer, Jiang Chen spared no effort to spend 100 million US dollars to build this headquarters building, and strive to make this headquarters building strong enough.

In addition, Jiang Chen plans to place the production line of virtual helmets here in this world. After all, this is a helmet worth more than one billion, and even if he was exhausted, he would not be able to carry it all. What's more, he has to transport food to the end of the world. Transport steel, and transport arms to the present world.

Since it is decided to produce in this world, the safety and confidentiality of virtual helmet production must be carefully considered.

However, Jiang Chen had already considered this point. The offshore platform he built next to Crescent Island is tailor-made for the factory that produces this virtual helmet!

There is no safer place than next to the military base. Under the scanning of the wide-area radio life signal detection device, no agent can escape the eyes of dozens of staff at the radar station. Once an infiltrator whose identity information has not been registered is found, the drone will arrest or drive him away. For those who resist arrest, the drone will start the attack process to eliminate them.

Jiang Chen intends to automate the production process of this virtual helmet. That is in addition to the delivery of raw materials. In addition to manual participation in product output and other links, the production process that needs to be kept secret is completed in the "black box". Although the cost of this automatic production line is a bit high, it is absolutely necessary for reasons of confidentiality.

Jiang Chen used the drawings designed by Lu Huasheng to build the factory. It was built by the modern construction company I found. There are three factory buildings in total, occupying the three corners of the triangular offshore platform. The total cost is two million U.S. dollars, which is nothing compared to the previous projects.

After a series of purchases and purchases, Jiang Chen used more than 6.7 billion of the 30 billion US dollars in loans on hand. But he didn't feel bad at all, because he knew that the money would be earned back soon.

Putting money aside, Jiang Chen has made a lot of money these days.

Sure enough, Tao Ming lived up to his expectations, and signed a supply order of 400,000 boxes of nutritional supplements for Future Life. Based on the profit of 500 US dollars per box, the profit of these 400,000 boxes is 200 million US dollars.

On the other hand, Emma Watson's agent readily agreed to the endorsement contract proposed by Future Life. And immediately arranged for Emma to go to Koro Island to shoot advertisements and posters. The reason why he agreed so quickly was partly because of the 1 million USD endorsement fee. On the other hand, I heard that there is an opportunity to show my face in the push advertisement of Future People 1.0.

Thinking about the terrifying installed capacity of Futureman 1.0, presumably not many people would refuse to show their faces on it.

Sales are done. Naturally, production matters cannot be left behind.

In order to expand the production of nutrient mixtures, Jiang Chen made several trips to the end of the world and brought in five newly built organic synthesis furnaces and a full 10 tons of induction reagents to expand the planting area of ​​dh seaweed.

Ever since, the workers of the nutritional supplement production plant began to work overtime like a nightmare. In order to complete the production tasks, the technical workers in charge of inducing the differentiation of Sargassum even slept in the laboratory on the floor. The planting ships on the sea also shuttle around day and night, and the workers fall to the ground in three shifts to plant the dh seaweed that leaves the factory, fertilize the seafields at the same time, and harvest the newly grown algae leaves...

Of course, Jiang Chen will not miss them in overtime pay. Compared with the $200 million order, the overtime pay of less than $100,000 is nothing to mention.

In order to prevent the workers from "death from overwork", Jiang Chen ordered Zhan Shujie to recruit 60 more employees to fill the vacancies. Jiang Chen also generously rewarded Zhan Shujie and Tao Ming for their contribution to the development of human beings in the future.

Each person's 1% dividend right will be used as their year-end bonus. After the two happily accepted it, they also worked harder.

Anyone can see the prospect of future human beings. Although the dividend is only 1%, but following this trend, the money they get every year is at least tens of millions of dollars!

In the past half a month, Jiang Chen finally felt the feeling of being busy. He could not wait to split himself in half and put one half on Anga Island, and the other half went back and forth between Crescent Island and Keluo Island.

But after half a month of busy work, everything is finally on the right track.

However, just when Jiang Chen thought he could finally relax, a new problem soon appeared.

Not counting the independent Xinghuan Trading Company, the number of employees of Future People International in Singapore alone has reached 400. Even though it seems that there are not many people, the total population of Xinguo is only 20,000, and the total labor force is only 10,000.

Now there are basically no fishing boats on the sea in Xinguo, and people are employed everywhere. The construction of infrastructure has driven local employment, and Anga Island, which had a high unemployment rate, suddenly faced difficulties in finding workers.

What's more, once the tourism resources are fully developed, the shortage of labor force will become bigger and bigger. Jiang Chen roughly estimated that when the construction company in the Netherlands completes the development of tourism resources, its employees will increase by at least 2,000, and at least 5,000 jobs will be created!

There are not so many people working in Xinguo.

Ever since, Jiang Chen set his sights on a certain big country that was brewing a wave of immigration.

However, his eyes are not aimed at those rich people who have sharpened their heads and run out, but those laborers with a high school diploma or above. (To be continued.)
